you said, in part, washington has become possessed by the idea that a small group of negotiators, meeting in secret, can solve the deep, painful, and systemic problems plaguing this country with a single grand bargain, produced at the 59th minute of the 11th hour. this is a siren song. i suppose the question would be then, what makes you think, senator, that a larger group of lawmakers, say congress, would be able to do any better, given the unbearable gridlock that you all have been in, and given the fact that gallup has polled you all at 10% favorability. what makes you think you can do better? >> ashleigh, i think, had we been debating for the last two years openly and honestly, the very difficult choices this country faces, the threat we have over us from the debt, the american, and we've done so intelligently and effectively, and our members are capable of that, i believe the american people would have a better -- >> but senator, i think there are a lot of people who disagree with you and say, open and wonderful debate, sure, but the filibuster stops a lot of that from happening, and

washington has a spending problem that can't be fixed with tax increases alone. the right answer is to start cutting spending, addressing our debt, and paving the way for long term economic growth. unfortunately the white house is so unserious about cutting spending that it appears willing to slow walk any agreement and walk our economy right up to the fiscal cliff. doing that puts jobs in our country in danger. jeopardizes a golden opportunity to make 2013 the year that we enact fundamental tax reform and entitlement reform to begin to solve our country's debt problem and, frankly, revenue problem. as you can see from this chart, real revenue growth is critically important as long as real cuts in spending if we're going to solve our long term fiscal problem. as i said five weeks ago, the election wasn't a mandate to raise taxes on small businesses. it was a mandate for both parties to work together to take on the big challenges that our country is facing. republicans are ready and eager to do just that. we made a reasonable offer. it's now up to the white house
